00:00In my last life, my sister and I were sent to the god realm to marry gods.
00:04My older sister married Leon, the god of fire.
00:07She gave birth to a griffin and helped him become the high king.
00:10I married Chiron, the god of water, but I couldn't give birth to a child.
00:15Chiron lost the throne to Leon and took his anger out on me.
00:18He tore my soul core apart and crushed the baby spirit inside me.
00:23When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the wedding selection day.
00:26This time, Chiron tried everything to please my sister and successfully married her.
00:32He thinks she will give him a griffin so he can take the throne, but he doesn't know that I
00:37carry the holy fire bloodline.
00:39Only by joining with the god of fire can I give birth to the legendary phoenix.
00:44On the day of the selection, the god realm was shining with light.
00:47It was a grand celebration, but for me, a lowly elf princess, it felt like a funeral.
00:53I stood in line with other princesses, looking up at the gods who looked down on us.
00:58Treon is so handsome and perfect!
01:00Marrying the gentle Treon is a dream, not like that angry Leon.
01:05Beside me, my sister Leah heard this.
01:07She looked at Chiron and blushed.
01:09In my last life, I thought the same thing.
01:12I was born to a lowly concubine.
01:14I was only chosen because I inherited my mother's beauty.
01:17Chiron chose me, and everyone envied me.
01:20My sister, the noble princess, always loved Chiron, but she was forced to marry Leon instead.
01:26At first, life was wonderful.
01:28Chiron was gentle and caring, just like the legend said.
01:32I thought I had finally found happiness, but it was actually the start of hell.
01:36Everything changed one year later.
01:38My sister became pregnant and gave birth to a rare griffin.
01:42The high king was so happy that he started favoring Leon, but my belly remained empty.
01:47Slowly, Chiron changed.
01:49He became impatient.
01:50He forced me to take banned drugs just to produce a child, but he is the god of water,
01:55and I am an elf of fire.
01:57Our powers clashed.
01:59For a hundred years, I suffered through forbidden magic, but I could not get pregnant.
02:03Finally, the high king couldn't wait anymore.
02:06He named Leon the heir and gave him the throne.
02:09That same day, Chiron came home full of rage.
02:12He tore my soul core and crushed my unborn child.
02:15I saw the spirit of my baby for one second.
02:18With my last breath, I grabbed his robe and begged.
02:22Please, I don't care if I die, but save our child.
02:26Chiron kicked me away and held the baby's spirit in his hand.
02:29Leon is king now.
02:31This brag is useless.
02:33Both of you die.
02:34He crushed my child right in front of my eyes.
02:36My poor baby never got to open its eyes before being killed by its own father.
02:41My soul vanished along with my child.
02:43I never expected to be reborn on the day of the selection.
02:46Hatred made my fingers cold as I looked at Chiron.
02:49But, I noticed something strange.
02:51This time, he was staring at my plain-looking sister.
02:54I realized it instantly.
02:56He was reborn too.
02:57Gods, you may choose your partners.
03:01The high king announced the start of the ceremony.
03:03In my last life, Chiron was the first to choose.
03:06He walked straight to me and picked me instantly.
03:09But this time, he walked straight to my sister, Leah.
03:13Father, I wish to marry Princess Leah of the Elf Clan.
03:16Chiron, are you sure?
03:18Yes, Father.
03:19My mind is made up.
03:19My sister was overjoyed.
03:21She grabbed Chiron's hand.
03:23Only then did Chiron turn to look at me, as if by accident.
03:27His eyes were like a knife stabbing deep into my heart.
03:30Suddenly, a warm hand grabbed my wrist.
03:33I turned around and looked into a pair of dark, ink-colored eyes.
03:37He held my wrist high and announced to everyone,
03:40I want her.
03:43No one expected Leon, the proud god of fire, to choose me.
03:48Chiron's face darkened.
03:49Leon, don't say I didn't warn you.
03:51Choosing such a weak elf princess as your wife will only lead to regret later.
03:56My chest tightened, and I wanted to speak.
03:59But Leon's hand slid down and gripped mine firmly.
04:02Chiron, worry about your own partner and stay out of my business.
04:06I like this elf girl.
04:07Whether she is weak or her aura damaged, I find her charming.
04:11I'm taking her.
04:12My heart skipped a beat.
04:13No one had ever chosen me so firmly.
04:16Everyone else was stunned too.
04:18Then, the queen laughed behind her hand, breaking the awkward silence.
04:23Leon has always been like this.
04:24If he likes her, let them be together.
04:26Leon was the favorite child, and the king and queen spoiled him deeply.
04:30Beside us, Chiron glared at me and let out a cold laugh.
04:34Leon, who would want such a useless piece of trap?
04:37In less than a hundred years, you'll hate her.
04:40I'll be waiting to see the day you cry and regret.
04:43My older sister and I returned to the elf realm to wait for our wedding.
04:47On the wedding day, Leah came to my room.
04:50She looked at my thin, poor dowry and mocked me.
04:52Ella, even we both marry in gods, you are still just a lowly elf.
04:57You must remember, I am marrying the future king,
05:01while you are marrying a god with a violent temper.
05:04Don't come crying to me when you suffer in the god realm.
05:06I don't want to deal with you.
05:08I looked at Leah's arrogant face and laughed inside.
05:11My dear sister, I hope you never experienced the pain I felt in my last life.
05:16My sister and I were both married into the god realm.
05:19As the eldest son of the king, Chiron's wedding was incredibly grand.
05:24Leah's wedding was spectacular.
05:27Everyone in the elf and human realms praised her.
05:30They said she had reached the heavens and would one day be queen,
05:33bringing luck to the world.
05:36I looked up at Leah sitting on the back of a divine beast with Chiron,
05:40but I felt no envy at all.
05:43In my last life, I was the one in that spot.
05:47Back then, I naively thought Chiron was perfect
05:50and that we would be happy forever.
05:53While I was lost in thought, the shadow of a giant black dragon suddenly appeared in the sky.
05:59The dragon's roar shook the world and pierced through the clouds.
06:03The crowd gasped in shock until the dragon landed in front of me and turned into a man.
06:09Leon wore a long black robe.
06:11He reached out, grabbed my waist, and pulled me tightly into his arms.
06:16Then, right in front of everyone, he gave me a firm kiss on my cheek.
06:21Forget those boring rituals.
06:23Come with me.
06:24Suddenly, I was lifted off my feet.
06:27Under the gaze of the entire elf realm,
06:29Leon carried me straight up to the god realm.
06:32Chiron and Leah's spotlight was completely stolen.
06:35Leon was deeply loved by the king and queen,
06:38and his palace sat in the most beautiful spot in the realm.
06:41After bringing me back, Leon said,
06:44Ella, from now on, this is your home.
06:48My heart suddenly felt tight and emotional.
06:51Since my mother passed away, I haven't had a home.
06:54The Leon in front of me was not as arrogant as the legend said.
06:59I remembered in my last life, whenever he appeared with Leah,
07:03he always seemed distracted and impatient.
07:06There were even rumors among the maids
07:08that Leah only got pregnant so fast because she used love spells.
07:14But back then, I was too worried about my own life
07:17to care about their relationship.
07:19I used to think Leon was hard to get along with.
07:21But now I see that isn't true.
07:23He is taller and more handsome than Chiron.
07:26When he looks at me, his dark eyes are always bright.
07:30Almost as if...
07:32As if he has been looking at me like this for a long time.
07:36My cheeks turned bright red.
07:39Leon smiled and gently tilted my chin up.
07:46Suddenly, the voice of a soldier came from outside.
07:51Lord Leon, Typhon has escaped from the abyss.
07:55Wait for me.
07:56He whispered before turning toward the battlefield.
07:59I watched him go, my heart a swirl of unspoken emotions.
08:05Meanwhile, rumors spread of Chiron and Leah's perfect romance.
08:09Chiron showered her with rare herbs
08:11and accompanied her home in a display of public devotion.
08:15Naturally, the people of the elf realm
08:17didn't miss the chance to mock me.
08:19What was the point of that flashy wedding?
08:22She's just a lonely widow in a big house now.
08:24How pathetic.
08:28No one came to serve my palace since Leon left.
08:31Likely on someone's orders.
08:33Aside from my two original maids,
08:35I was left entirely alone.
08:37Even the standard offerings of celestial herbs
08:39and spirit stones vanished without a trace.
08:42But I didn't care.
08:43My palace was full of treasures
08:45Leon told me to use freely.
08:46Having been weak since my mother's death,
08:49I finally began to heal.
08:51Using the divine herbs daily,
08:53I repaired my cracked core within years.
08:55My sickly pale skin began to glow.
08:58Even my maids noticed.
09:00Ella is becoming so radiant.
09:02Lord Leon will be enchanted when he returns.
09:04I blushed at the thought,
09:05but Leon had yet to return.
09:08Soon, a dark rumor began to circulate throughout God Realm.
09:11They whispered that Princess Ella carried out.
09:13Fire. Curse.
09:17That would bring ruin to her partner.
09:19And that Leon might never return from the abyss because of it.
09:26The tension surrounding me and the fire palace
09:29finally reached a breaking point
09:30at a grand feast organized by Chiron.
09:32I hadn't planned on attending,
09:34but my sister Leah sent a formal invitation,
09:37claiming that with Leon away,
09:38it was my duty to represent him.
09:40I had no choice but to go.
09:42I had my maids craft a sweeping black robe
09:45and pulled my soft, flowing hair into a high, sharp ponytail.
09:49I looked like a mirror image of Leon himself.
09:53When I arrived,
09:54the entire hall fell silent in shock.
09:58Leah, however,
09:59did not look well after these few years.
10:01Her face had an unnatural flush,
10:03her figure was bloated,
10:05and her eyes were clouded with exhaustion.
10:07When she saw me,
10:09her gaze instantly filled with malice and envy.
10:12Ella,
10:13I didn't expect you to thrive so much
10:16while Leon is missing!
10:17I smiled calmly.
10:18Sister,
10:19you flatter me.
10:20I am simply waiting for my husband's return.
10:24At that moment,
10:25Chiron,
10:26who had been staring at me in silence,
10:27suddenly spoke.
10:29Husband?
10:30How affectionately you call him.
10:32My expression remained unshaking
10:33as I met his gaze.
10:34Chiron,
10:35surely you jerk.
10:37Leon and I are wed.
10:39Husband
10:39is the only natural title.
10:41As soon as those words left my mouth,
10:43Chiron's expression turned deathly cold.
10:46Even Leah noticed something was wrong.
10:49Chiron?
10:49What is the meaning of this?
10:51To everyone's shock,
10:53Chiron violently shook off her hand.
10:57He stared at me.
10:59Ella,
10:59do you truly think
11:00marrying a warm,
11:02warring god of fire
11:03gave you a good home?
11:06How can you even compare to Leah?
11:08And how can Leon possibly compare to me?
11:11The entire hall fell into a stunned silence.
11:15In the quiet,
11:16I let out a soft laugh.
11:18Kynon Leon has never cared
11:20to compare himself to you.
11:21And there is no need to compare me to my sister.
11:24But as the eldest brother,
11:27it is improper for you
11:29to speak El of my husband
11:31in my presence.
11:33With that,
11:34I turned to leave.
11:35But my words seemed to snap
11:37Chiron's restraint entirely.
11:38He lunged forward
11:39and grabbed my arm
11:40with terrifying force.
11:42Ella!
11:42You wouldn't dare!
11:44You wouldn't dare!
11:46Fall for him!
11:47I tried to shake him off,
11:48but his grip was like an iron shackle.
11:51Just as the tension reached its breaking point,
11:53a streak of crimson light
11:55flashed into the hall from outside.
11:57A razor-sharp blade sliced through the air,
11:59aimed directly at the arm Chiron used to hold me.
12:02Startled,
12:03Leah got spooked and hid.
12:05The momentum sent me stumbling backward,
12:08but a second later,
12:09a familiar, powerful arm
12:10caught me firmly by the waist.
12:12I heard that voice.
12:14Chiron,
12:15I show you respect,
12:16only because you are my elder brother.
12:19Lay one hand on her again,
12:21and I will sever this arm from your body.
12:26He was the one being insulting,
12:28yet he had the nerve to claim
12:29Leon was the one losing control.
12:31In that moment,
12:32I finally understood
12:33how the rumors of Leon's
12:34explosive temper
12:35had started.
12:37Chiron's plan was simple.
12:39Who would want a volatile,
12:40unstable god on the throne?
12:42To the world,
12:43the gentle god of water
12:45was the obvious choice for king.
12:46I glanced at Leon,
12:48but he looked completely unbothered,
12:50clearly used to Chiron's slander.
12:52A surge of rage boiled inside me.
12:54If not for my past life,
12:56even I wouldn't have known
12:58that Chiron was a total hypocrite.
13:00In my last life,
13:01he spent decades
13:02forcing me to take forbidden drugs.
13:04He watched me cough up blood
13:06and scream in agony
13:07from the backfiring spells,
13:09only to sneer at me with contempt.
13:13How is it your sister
13:15produced a griffin so easily,
13:17yet you can't even carry
13:19a single cub?
13:20Drink it!
13:21Drink every last drop!
13:24If you can't give me a kid,
13:26you might as well be dead!
13:27Yet,
13:28that same cruel monster
13:29would act like a devoted,
13:31doting husband
13:31the moment anyone else was watching.
13:34Living with that extreme duality
13:36was a constant nightmare.
13:38He tortured me then,
13:39and now,
13:40he was trying to ruin Leon.
13:41The hatred from two lifetimes
13:43boiled over.
13:44I gripped Leon's hand tightly
13:46and raised my voice in defiance.
13:48Chiron,
13:49your words are utterly absurd.
13:51You just laid hands on me
13:53without cause.
13:54Is this how a god behaves?
13:56If Leon hadn't have returned in time,
13:58you would have surely broken my arm.
14:00A woman's reputation is everything.
14:03Had Leon not seen this
14:04with his own eyes,
14:05rumors would have run wild
14:06and I would have had no way
14:08to clear my name.
14:10You were the one
14:11who acted disrespectfully
14:12before the gods,
14:13yet you dare blame Leon
14:14for his anger?
14:15While Leon and his warriors
14:17bled in the abbess
14:18to protect Olympus,
14:19you sat comfortably
14:20in this hall.
14:21Instead of worrying
14:22for his safety,
14:23you insulted his wife.
14:24Where is the justice in that?
14:26Do you not fear disheartening
14:28every warrior
14:28currently fighting
14:29on the front lines?
14:30As my words echoed
14:31through the hall,
14:32everyone stood frozen
14:33in absolute shock.
14:35Since arriving on God Realm,
14:36I had been silent
14:37and invisible.
14:38I never saw conflict,
14:40which was why they felt
14:41so comfortable neglecting me.
14:44Even Leon was stunned
14:45by my fierce rebuttal.
14:46His eyes widened
14:48with a look of pure,
14:49joyful surprise.
14:50Chiron, on the other hand,
14:52looked as though his face
14:53had been carved
14:53from permafrost.
14:55Yet, he couldn't find
14:56a single word to counter me.
14:58The banquet ended
14:59in a disastrous chill.
15:01Soon, rumors began to swirl
15:03that the god of water
15:04had acted improperly
15:05toward the god of fire's wife
15:06while he was away at battle.
15:09Because I had framed it
15:10as an insult
15:11to every soldier
15:11on the front lines,
15:13the scandal exploded.
15:14When the High King
15:15caught wind of it,
15:16he summoned Chiron
15:17and gave him
15:18a scathing reprimand.
15:19He even ordered Chiron
15:21into isolation
15:21to reflect on his actions,
15:23a massive blow to his pride.
15:26In a way,
15:27I had finally avenged
15:28the version of myself
15:29from my past life.
15:31Leon returned victorious,
15:33but he was still buried
15:35in military affairs.
15:36I, too,
15:37hadn't quite figured out
15:38how to act around him.
15:39That day,
15:41Leon went to the High King's palace
15:42for a meeting,
15:43but an uninvited guest
15:45arrived at my palace.
15:47I looked at Leah's
15:48venomous expression
15:49and felt a wave of weariness.
15:51Sis, we both married
15:52into the god realm.
15:53If we can't support each other,
15:55fine.
15:56But why make things
15:57so difficult?
15:58When did you seduce Chiron?
16:00You made him humiliate himself
16:01for you at the feast!
16:05Your mother was just
16:06a lowly servant
16:07who seduced our father,
16:09and you're just like her.
16:11How dare you ruin
16:12my perfect marriage?
16:13Her insults toward
16:15my late mother
16:15turned my blood cold.
16:18Sister,
16:18if it were truly
16:19a perfect marriage,
16:20how could I ruin it
16:22so easily?
16:24Besides,
16:25in all these years,
16:26I've barely seen
16:27the god of water,
16:27and you were always there.
16:29When exactly did you
16:30see me seduce him?
16:33Let me be clear.
16:35My heart belongs
16:36only to my husband.
16:38I adore him.
16:40And I couldn't care less
16:41about your precious
16:42water god.
16:43Just as the words
16:44left my mouth,
16:45a soft chuckle
16:46came from the doorway.
16:47I turned to find
16:49Leon standing there,
16:50his eyes sparkling
16:51with mischief and delight.
16:53My face instantly
16:54turned bright red.
16:55What on earth
16:56did I just say?
16:58Leah left with a face
16:59pale from fury.
17:02Meanwhile,
17:03Leon,
17:04having heard
17:04my passionate confession,
17:06slowly approached.
17:08Blushing and speechless,
17:10I backed away
17:11until he pinned me
17:12against the couch,
17:13a playful smirk
17:14on his lips.
17:16My lady,
17:18what was it
17:19you just said?
17:23Nothing.
17:24I said nothing.
17:26I could have sworn
17:27I heard you say
17:28you adore me.
17:30I...
17:31Before I could protest,
17:33Leon silenced me
17:34with a kiss.
17:34When the union
17:35finally began,
17:36he revealed the predatory
17:37nature of a primordial god.
17:39He was relentless,
17:40leaving me breathless
17:41and half-spent.
17:42Only after such intimacy
17:43did I realize
17:45that the volatile god of fire
17:46could be so incredibly
17:47tender to his wife.
17:49Since then,
17:50Leon and I truly began
17:51our life together
17:52as a married couple.
17:54Gradually,
17:55I discovered
17:56that the previously
17:57dormant core
17:58within my body
17:59was beginning to clear.
18:04My chronically cold
18:06hands and feet
18:06grew warm,
18:07as if an ethereal flame
18:09were burning within me.
18:11Yet,
18:12it didn't feel scorching.
18:14Instead,
18:15I felt my soul
18:16and body
18:16strengthening day by day.
18:18I finally understood
18:19why I could never
18:21conceive in my past life.
18:22My inner core
18:24is fire-attributed,
18:26while Chiron
18:27is the god of water.
18:28His core was icy
18:30and damp,
18:31a fatal mismatch
18:32for mine.
18:33In my previous life,
18:35simply neutralizing
18:36the water energy
18:37he forced upon me
18:39exhausted
18:39all my core's strength.
18:42With a volatile
18:43and weakened foundation,
18:45how could I have
18:46ever nurtured a kid?
18:47The baby
18:48I finally conceived
18:50after being forced
18:51to ingest
18:51countless forbidden
18:52in drugs
18:53was heartlessly
18:54crushed to death
18:55by him.
18:58Now that I am married
18:59to the god of fire,
19:01our cores
19:01are in perfect harmony.
19:04During our occasional
19:05dual cultivation,
19:06I feel my body
19:08becoming warm
19:08and incredibly light.
19:10It made me wonder,
19:12what could my true form be?
19:15Just as I was lost
19:16in thought,
19:17a piece of news
19:18swept through the god realm.
19:20Princess Leia,
19:22the wife of the water god,
19:23was pregnant.
19:25The princesses
19:26of the mortal realm,
19:27Leia,
19:28and I
19:28all wed on the same day.
19:30While Leon was at war,
19:32the two mortal princesses
19:33both conceived
19:34and gave birth to Kid.
19:36Meanwhile,
19:37the rumors grew cruel.
19:39Elf princesses were less fertile
19:41than humans.
19:43Since Leon had been away,
19:45I wasn't concerned.
19:47But I knew Leia had secretly
19:49sought spirit medicines
19:50many times.
19:51I understood
19:52Chiron's agonizing
19:53forbidden arts
19:54better than anyone.
19:55Leia's life
19:56these past few years
19:57must have been a misery
19:58that withered her beauty.
20:00Now,
20:01finally pregnant,
20:02she could hold
20:03her head high.
20:05Her news
20:05even restored
20:06the high king
20:07standing with Zeus,
20:08placing him back
20:09at the center of power.
20:11I saw her again
20:12at a god realm banquet.
20:13Her face was caked
20:14in thick powder,
20:16yet it failed to mask
20:17her deathly pallor.
20:18Still,
20:19the moment she saw me,
20:21she struck
20:21a triumphant pose
20:22and sneered.
20:23Ella,
20:24you and Leon
20:24have been married
20:25for years now.
20:26Why hasn't there been
20:27any news of a child?
20:28You can't even
20:29give birth of a kid.
20:30You're a disgrace
20:31to our demigod clan.
20:32If people start thinking
20:34our kind is infertile,
20:36how will you take
20:37responsibility
20:37for ruining our reputation?
20:40I looked at her
20:41sickly, pale face
20:42and sighed.
20:43There are many
20:44fire bloodlines
20:45in the elf clan
20:46and you are no exception.
20:48Now that you're pregnant,
20:49you know best
20:50how much you're suffering.
20:52Instead of Bickley
20:53with me,
20:53you should spend
20:54that energy
20:55figuring out
20:55how to survive
20:56what's coming.
20:57As I spoke,
20:58Chiron stepped forward
20:59and wrapped an arm
21:00around Leah's waist.
21:01Our child is our business.
21:03Don't bother yourself
21:04with it.
21:06Ella,
21:07perhaps I shouldn't
21:08say this,
21:08but a useless woman
21:10who can't conceive
21:11really ought to stay
21:12hidden at home.
21:13Don't bring your bad luck
21:14into public spaces.
21:16He turned a mocking
21:17grin toward Leon,
21:18who was standing
21:19right behind me.
21:20My poor brother.
21:23I'm afraid you won't
21:24see a child
21:25for a hundred years.
21:26Best of luck
21:27with that.
21:27The surrounding
21:28immortals cast pitying
21:29and scornful glances
21:30at us.
21:31I looked at Leon,
21:32feeling a sharp
21:33pang of guilt.
21:35I knew how much
21:36a child meant
21:36to a god.
21:37Having a brilliant
21:38and powerful
21:39divine beast
21:40as an heir
21:40is a crucial factor
21:42in becoming
21:42the successor
21:43to the high king.
21:44In my last life,
21:46even though Leon
21:47and my sister
21:48were at odds,
21:49she still bore him
21:50a griffin,
21:51which ultimately
21:52helped him ascend
21:52to the throne.
21:54But in this life,
21:55though we have been
21:56married for years
21:57and are deeply in love,
21:58my womb remained silent.
22:00My heart sank
22:01at the thought
22:02and my eyes began
22:03to sting
22:04with unshed tears.
22:05Leon, however,
22:07didn't spare a glance
22:08for the mocking crowd.
22:09He reached out,
22:10gently pinching my cheek.
22:12Why are you crying?
22:13What does a child matter?
22:17Are the two of us
22:18not happy together?
22:20But...
22:20No buts.
22:21Leon gripped my hand,
22:23turning his back
22:24on the staring gods
22:25as he led me out.
22:26I have you,
22:26and that is enough.
22:28I know what you're
22:29worried about, Ella,
22:30but you have to trust me.
22:32Your husband
22:32is the god of war.
22:34The throne was never
22:35meant to be won
22:36through a child.
22:36My tears finally spilled over
22:38as Leon pulled me
22:39into a tight embrace.
22:41On an ordinary morning,
22:42I was suddenly overcome
22:44by nausea
22:45and chest tightness.
22:47Leon was terrified
22:48and summoned
22:49the Celestial Physician,
22:51only to discover
22:52I was already
22:53three months pregnant.
22:54He spun me around
22:55in his arms,
22:56radiating pure joy.
22:58Even the High King
22:59and Queen were overjoyed,
23:01granting her
23:02countless magical herbs.
23:03Leah,
23:04now heavily pregnant
23:05and nearing her term,
23:07looked at me
23:07with bitter resentment.
23:09I wonder what
23:10desperate methods
23:11a lowly body
23:12like yours
23:12had to use
23:13to conceive.
23:14I tilted my head
23:15with a smile.
23:16I suppose
23:17because your own journey
23:18was so difficult,
23:20you assume everyone else
23:21must resort
23:22to extreme measures.
23:25She shot me a glare
23:26and stormed off.
23:27I watched her go,
23:29my smile fading
23:30into a heavy sigh.
23:31A dark,
23:32lingering premonition
23:33began to crawl
23:34into my heart.
23:35Sure enough,
23:36on the day Leah
23:37gave birth,
23:38wild winds roared
23:39through the god realm.
23:41Accompanied by thunder
23:42and lightning,
23:43the High King
23:44and Queen
23:44led the other gods
23:45waiting outside the room.
23:47But after a day
23:48and a night
23:49of Leah's agonizing screams,
23:51she gave birth
23:52to a harpy hatchling.
23:54A slick,
23:55twisted creature
23:56with mangled wings,
23:58a bird's torso
23:59and a fish's tail.
24:01It was hideous.
24:03A grotesque deformity
24:05of nature.
24:07What is this thing?
24:08Why isn't it a griffin?
24:10Where is my kid?
24:12Useless!
24:13You are all useless!
24:17No!
24:22How could you kill him?
24:25He was your own
24:26flesh and blood.
24:27You butcher!
24:28I'll kill you!
24:29I'll avenge my child!
24:31This is not my child.
24:33I could never father
24:35such a freak.
24:35Don't be wounded.
24:36I could never take
24:36No.
